Why wp_move_block needs a policy

Moving a block within a post editor is a reversible modification operation. It changes the order/position of content blocks but does not create new content (Write vs Execute), does not permanently delete anything (Write vs Destructive), and does not trigger code execution or financial transactions.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'wp_move_block' and description 'Move a block from one position to another' indicate modification of existing content structure without deletion or execution of external operations.

How to control wp_move_block

PolicyLayer is an MCP gateway — it sits between your AI agents and Claudaborative Editing, and nothing reaches the server without passing your rules. This is the rule we recommend for wp_move_block:

policy.json
{
  "version": "1",
  "default": "deny",
  "tools": {
    "wp_move_block": {
      "limits": [
        {
          "counter": "wp_move_block_rate",
          "window": "minute",
          "max": 30,
          "scope": "grant"
        }
      ]
    }
  }
}

wp_move_block stays usable, but capped — an agent stuck in a loop can't make hundreds of changes a minute. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
